You are correct, and that does work just fine on my PVR-350 system.  I
actually rarely watch live tv anymore.  I watch recorded shows almost
100% of the time on the myth box, primarily to take advantage of the
commercial flagging process.  This does mean watching stuff time shifted
by about an hour and 12 minutes or so if I want to watch them the same
night they are broadcast.
